Looks like awful lot of work to create such battery packs. I guess next step is to automate general assembly and dissasembly of battery packs via some smart AI robotics.

Try it manually first, can't automate a process if you don't know the process yet. That will prove the business case too, with a lot less upfront investment.

The problem is that it doesn't scale; unless you have quality and reliability guarantees on the batteries, you won't be able to sell it in anything but unregulated markets, meaning that demand will always be low and investments in "smart AI robotics" will never earn themselves back.

You can sell the process, tooling, and support. Or, you can take a step back and wonder why it needs a capital solution and not a social one :).

It's not that much work, you just need an arc welder. If you're experienced, it only takes a minute.
